ENERGY MEANS the power we have inside our body which inspires us to create vibrations on earth. This power or element is ‘Shiva’. ‘Shiva’ is the element that generated the earth’s energy and operates all of us. But he is also a destroyer. When the sins of the world increase, he starts the dance of ‘Tandava’. This dance is the sign of destruction. The ‘mahamrityinjaya jap’ is a ‘mantra’ related to Lord Shiva.

It can be sung in ‘brahma muhurta’ with accurate pronunciation. It gives us prosperity and peace. The main objective to sing this ‘jap’ is that, through this ‘mantra’, anyone’s life can be saved, who is in trouble. The ‘mantra’ is, “Om ! tryambakam yajamahe sugandhim pushtivardhanam, urvaru kamivabandhna mritormokshiya mamritat”

Lord Shiva wears all that which is neglected by the people. He lives in graveyard "samashana" and wears leather and uses a snake as a necklace. When someone is in trouble, Shiva takes him in his hand and solves all problems. Then, he returns him to his normal condition. This means that he takes all the responsibilities of our problems and gives us peace and happiness. Satyam, Shivam, Sundaram are related to each other.

The devotee who prays to Lord Shiva, does actually pray to the above thrice elements. The prayer of Lord Shiva is the spiritual way of life and one can easily be free from his sins and it is not necessary for him to be born again. Shiva is the energy and the spirit of life.

You sound offended. But the reason I asked is that the Gayathri Mantra is recommended to be chanted 108 times. They say it has a good effect that way. For every mantra, they say a certain No. of times to be chanted for the bext effect. Hope you got it.

I think, any mantra should be repeated 108 times. How can I begin to say I�m sorry.I didn�t mean to upset you.I hope that you can forgive me. I�m sorry.

One question that comes to my mind. How many times should a person chat the mantra during brahma muhurta?

Hay! It is an activity for you. Take a bowl and start the mantra. Then, put a peanut in a bowl after the completion of the mantra. Do it again and again till sunrise. Definitely, you will count how many times you chanted the mantra.Isn't it childish?
